Aug 18th,  2008 - One  of my favorite things to do is solve puzzles. I first started with Mellisa and Doug's puzzles where you had to match the pictures and over time, I graduated to 2 piece puzzles. Now my dad got me a 48-piece puzzle which is really 12 4-piece puzzle. This puzzle has some of my favorite animals like monkeys, giraffes, birds and other animals. It also has my favorite numbers 1-12. My dad has to give me each of the 4-piece puzzles and I am quickly able to put the puzzle together. 

Aug 25th,  2008 - Today is the first day of the Fall Semster here in the Irving and Coppell areas and also at my school. I was at home all of last week because I was sick and also my school was closed for two days because the teachers were attending some training. Since I was at home for a week, I was not very excited about going to school today and my parents had to force me to get ready to go to school. Since it was the first day, Dad also came to drop me off today and so that made it a bit easier for me to go to school.  Once I was at school, it all came back to me and I was all excited to see my friends and Miss Humeira.

I hope I have as much fun in the Fall as I did in the Summer. I LOVE SCHOOL.

Aug 16th,  2008 - Today we went shopping to the Grapevine Mills Mall and everytime we go there, I must stop at either the Choo Choo Train store or at the Lunar Golf Store. Today we stopped at the Choo Choo Train store. The store has undergone some changes, they no longer keep many trains for kids to play. We can get only two trains if my parents leave an id behind. Seems like people may have been taking the trains home and they had to come up with this policy. 

My dad then let me play in the children's playpen area where there is a slide and a mini-Thomas train. I played there for a few minutes before I got bored and we decided to pursue with more shopping. The Disney store was where we went next. 

Aug 7th,  2008 - My mother had a dental surgery this morning and she was really tired with all the medicines she had taken. My dad decided to take me to Go Bonkers, right here in Lewisville. I had come here a few weeks ago when my cousin Ayush was in town. They have a toddler area on one side of the play area and my dad let me play there. There were may other toddlers like me and we had a lot of fun running down on the slides and throwing the cushions. 

Also for the first time, I climbed up  to a higher level and I think my dad was worried that I may not be able to come down but I did manage to find my way back. We played for about an hour and then came back home. I had a lot of fun. My dad prefers to bring me here on a weekday because its less crowded. We came here once on a weekend and there was no play to stand.
